Rumor that the largest airplane in the world (AN-225) was destroyed in Ukraine.

Latvia, Estonia and Lithuania are next after Ukraine. If Russia takes heavy losses (and I hope they do) they wont have much left and will get desperate.

"The former prime ministers of Italy and Finland and the ex-chancellor of Austria resigned from the boards of Russian companies on Thursday following Vladimir Putin’s full-scale military invasion of Ukraine."

Hopefully more follow

Burning Russian tanks; planes and helicopters being shot down. Russia may win but Ukraine is making them pay

One takeaway from all of these videos is just how old some of the Russian military equipment appears. Trucks, guns, and armor straight out of the 1970's.

Don’t agree with people saying this will be short. Ukraine probably prepared to use guérilla tactics. This will be a long, deadly conflict.

Plus, this would get the west directly involved since the Baltics are NATO.

The conventional warfare part will be short. Ukraine will bloody Russia quite a bit, but Russia can just overwhelm them with numbers.

The guerilla stuff will go on for awhile though.

For control over the Baltic. They only have 2 ports there and with those countries they can begin building a stronger navy

He would be crazy to attack any other country. He is really getting ballsy by attacking all of Ukraine.

Are troops attacking western Ukraine or they are just bombing those areas?

Putin is a pretty calculating guy. He's a thug POS but he is not stupid.

I don't see any way he directly attacks a NATO country right now.

So he’s desperate with a military losing equipment and men but he’s gonna attack NATO……
